Half-day course profile

9:30 Preparation:
We begin by examining the 3 major pitfalls interviewees face in preparation. 1. Under preparation 2. Over preparation 3. Wrong preparation. In order to correct this, we look at the 3 elements of good preparation:

  • Know yourself and your CV
  • Spend time looking at key questions and how to answer them
  • Role-play and mock interview practice

You will get the job you want by demonstrating to the interview panel that you are the best candidate in terms of Personality, skill and experience. A key phrase here is “Show don’t tell”. Let it be clear by the way you conduct yourself in the interview that you are a good communicator rather than by telling them so.

  • What are they looking for? Key qualities; Personality, experience, enthusiasm, honesty, teamworking and leadership abilities.
  • Interview myths: You’re better off being interviewed first/last, internal candidates are favoured, bigger panel means harder questions, etc.
